I am new to the site, and recently purchased a 2003 Mitsubishi Fuso FG 649. I am trying to build a tiny house on the back of it, and looking into a steel welded, or bolted aluminum frame. Wondering if anyone has experience or suggestions for which one to choose. thank you

Welcome to Expedition Portal.

Congratulations on the truck purchase. When you say you want to build a tiny house on the back, I'm assuming something along the theme shown in the following YouTube video.

Have you considered starting with a truck cargo body and modify it to suit your needs?

Morgan makes some here in the USA. These bodies are very stout. There's a whole service industry built around their manufacture, service and repair. You can download a Parts Manual in PDF on their cargo bodies. It should give you some idea on the framing they use. You might be able to source a basic frame build from them. They do have a set of engineers that should be able to answer any questions you might have.

Hope this helps.
